The Keswick Convention is an annual gathering of conservative evangelical Christians in Keswick, in the English county of Cumbria.[3]
The Christian theological tradition of Keswickianism, also known as the Higher Life movement, became popularised through the Keswick Conventions, the first of which was a tent revival in 1875 at St John's Church in Keswick.[4][5]
